Beautiful illustrations offer clear explanations of complicated physics and astronomical concepts. Lots of constellation charts, almost too much of the book.

Gorgeous coffee-table tome. Imagery-dominated chapters on the relevant physical-science basics, the solar system, the Milky Way, other galaxies, and the night sky for amateur observers. Gorgeous.

Another fantastic book by published by DK. Not a Creation viewpoint but with other compatible science and excellent photos. Had ours spiral bound with plastic front & back covers to extend the life of this well-loved paperback book
